Chapel Poem by Je'free Y .

Like a portal to the morning and the evening,
Filled with praise and gratitude that increase faith,
And with absolution that decreases guilt and ego -
This is the nourishing room for a soul to prosper.

Speakers, with more of a heart than a tongue,
Also are listeners in petition for a tender heart,
And a thick skin. They are down on their knees
To be standing strong on the road of frustrations,
To be strengthening relationships.

Like a healing place, a world of answers to anxiety,
This tunnel leading to freedom,
Allows them who pray to find grace and equanimity,
And to recognize interconnectedness of all -
Both in the seen and unseen realms.
